Message: [QUOTE="MSOrange, post: 1088804, member: 630"] Nothing wrong with an exhibition game like that imho. Carelton will be a good test so it will be good to have one game to get as many guys as we can some extended playing time. We've got a lot of guys stepping into new roles that I'd like to see get some confidence regardless of opponent. One thing that frustrated me about some of our non-conference games last year was our inability to build big leads or sustain leads in a few games that I felt we could have (down by 6 to Cornell at the half, only up 10 vs Colgate, up by 3 vs High Point, letting Eastern Michigan back into the game after it looked like blowout city) so that JB felt more comfortable getting the younger guys some additional PT. Now some may argue that JB should have felt comfortable enough in a few of those games to get the guys some more minutes, but we all know he plays the guys he is most comfortable with until he is sure of the win.
